Pilots of all participating aircraft announce their entry and exit and their
location while in the practice area. While inside the practice area, pilots should
communicate position relative to a known landmark, altitude or block attitude of use,
and intentions. This information should be communicated on the air-to-air frequency,
122.75 MHz, or other designated frequency, as available and authorized.

Certificated and non-certificated flight schools in the area develop a local practice
area map to facilitate coordination among schools regarding practice areas in use and
recommended entry and exit procedures. The practice area map will also serve as a means
to teach and promote practice area procedures and routes. This information should be
widely distributed to all area flight instructors and students, including independent
operators.

Maneuvers be flown at an odd altitude, such as 1,150 feet, rather than 1,200 feet.
This practice will tend to randomly disperse the traffic vertically.

When possible, an observer be taken on flights where additional seats are available.
The observer can enhance the traffic scan of a single pilot.

Entry and exit route procedures, including recommended flight paths and altitudes, be
established. Entry and exit points, as well as corridors to and from practice areas,
should be depicted as high density traffic areas and extra vigilance should be exercised.
Consideration should be given to an increased risk of collision when aircraft converge
on a common landmark from different directions.

Periodic analysis of events and operations related to these procedures be accomplished
among the participating organizations. Identified improvements should be made and
monitored to continually assure safe operations.
